Kevin Mawae continues to linger on the FA market, but he's not in any rush to sign with a team unless it's the right situation.  It'll be curious to see if Mawae is willing to let this play out all the way through camp, hoping for an injury to open up a new opportunity, or if he'd go ahead and re-sign with us understanding that he'd probably be a back-up.

It's been a slow start to the free agency for Titans fans, but if you're like me you keep checking the wire hoping it'll Tell Me Something Good, just like Rufus (which featured Chaka Khan)!  It's a dreary day here in Nashville, so it's of pressing importance to start the day with good coffee and something real funky.

 Paul K delivers a (admittedly non-scientific) post analyzing the case for not trading back in the draft.  He's certainly right that the trade back for Ben Troupe didn't work all that well, but it's still a sound plan if there isn't anyone overwhelming and a good offer comes along.

 It's the off-season, so it's time for folks to start acting like the Texans will finally turn the corner... I think that makes 4 years and counting.
